Why’s this relevant you might be thinking? Well it’s trying times my friends. My Mactop has had to go in for repair. Now normally if a computer went wrong I’d fix it myself, but the fact of the matter is that if I did I’d invalidate my warrenty and my Applecare insurance meaning if it got totally written off I’d be screwed.

So I took it to a service provider, the only one in the North East of England – 20 miles away. Luckily my Applecare means that I don’t pay a penny, but I’m not geting it back till Monday – I practically wanted to cry when he said I’d have to part from my laptop for that long.

But it got me thinking and gave me a bit of a challenge: I have to now use my iPod as my primary computing device until Monday, which surprise surprise, I’m using to write this blog post. Unfortunately though I can’t position content like I usually do an I can’t format text or put a “more” button in.

But what I really wan to know is if I can manage websites, adwords campaigns, book writing and other stuff from this pocket computer. If I can I may let Apple use me as an example

I think it’s going to be interesting trying to do routine computer activities on my iPod – time to take a dig around to app store – I’ll post the results up tomorrow .

Till then!!
